This Isn't What I Paid For

This isn't what I paid for (Fuck) You want to run away But where we grew is home to me Feeling safe in my own town And finding comfort with my friends They say this town is fucked up And torn to pieces You're set to sail But you're destined for a shipwreck And I'll take my time So I don't fuck up these second chances Don't chase time There's nothing to live up to But I still stood dry Instead of pushing myself in the water So I'll live on the sand While you drown under the water I'll lift you up but you look right through me You took me by surprise, when you left me out to dry Thoughts of what's ahead make moments roll by Sirens keep me static while you flow with traffic I take it back, you're just a friend with no connection And just remember I'm the one that tried to hold you back I take it back, you're just a friend with no connection And just remember that this isn't what I paid for And I'll take my time So I don't fuck up these second chances Don't chase time There's nothing to live up to But I still stood dry Instead of pushing myself in the water So I'll live on the sand While you drown under the water
